Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Five Israeli soldiers were killed and seven others injured by errant Israeli tank fire in the Jabalia refugee camp in the northern Gaza Strip.<\/p>\n

The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) made this known in a statement on Thursday.<\/p>\n

The casualties were with a force that entered Gaza City and seized buildings as part of a resumed attack on the refugee camp.<\/p>\n

Two IDF tanks, positioned several dozen meters away, apparently spotted a gun in a window of one of the buildings and fired two shells towards the target.<\/p>\n

The army said it was investigating why the soldiers were misidentified as Palestinian militants.<\/p>\n

A total of 626 soldiers have been killed in Hamas\u2019 October 7 attack and Israel\u2019s ensuing attacks on Gaza, according to the IDF tally.<\/p>\n
